I have an 11.28 cm cyst in my right ovary and my doctor recommended laparoscopic surgery is it really safe or can it be treated with medicines instead
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
A large ovarian cyst like yours (11.28 cm) does increase the risk of complications like torsion or rupture, and surgery is often recommended for cysts of this size. Laparoscopic surgery, removing the cyst through small incisions, is generally considered safe and less invasive than an open procedure. While medication can sometimes shrink smaller cysts, it's less likely to be effective for very large ones.

View allSo, I got an abdominal ultrasound and the report says my endometrial cavity is empty. Does that mean I'm not pregnant? I'm a bit confused about what this really means.
Severe burning, itching, and bleeding in the anus can be debilitating. Piles (hemorrhoids) can be treated without surgery, but it's essential to consult a doctor (proctologist or gastroenterologist) for proper diagnosis and treatment. Medications like stool softeners, pain relievers, and anti-inflammatory creams can help alleviate symptoms. Lifestyle changes, such as increasing fiber intake, staying hydrated, and avoiding straining during bowel movements, can also help. In some cases, non-surgical procedures like rubber band ligation, sclerotherapy, or infrared coagulation may be recommended. Complete cure without surgery is possible, but it's crucial to work with a healthcare professional to develop a personalized treatment plan.

I'm really worried and hoping for some advice. So, I had unprotected sex a day before I got my period and my cycles are usually between 28-32 days. The guy I was with ejaculated inside me. Is there a chance I could still get pregnant from this? I'm a bit anxious about the timing and how it all works. Would love some clarity on this!
It's unlikely that pregnancy would occur in this scenario, as the girl had her usual period the day after unprotected sex. Ovulation typically occurs in the middle of the menstrual cycle, so if the period started on time, it suggests she was not in her fertile window. However, if there are any concerns or missed periods later, it's always a good idea to take a pregnancy test or consult a healthcare provider.

I recently had my uterus polyp removed on the 23rd, and I started my period after three weeks. It's now the fourth day, and I feel like I'm still bleeding, but I'm not sure if it's regular period flow. Normally, my cycle used to last 5 days, but for the past two months, it's extended to 7 days. Typically, by the fourth day, my period would be much lighter, but now there's still a flow, and I'm uncertain if it's just part of the period or actual bleeding. I'm currently taking antibiotics and infection medication after the procedure. Is this normal after having a DC for polyp removal, or should I check in with my gynecologist?
Its normal to experience some changes in your cycle after a D&C or polyp removal, as your body is still recovering. However, if the bleeding seems heavier than usual or if you're feeling uncertain, its always best to consult your gynecologist to ensure everything is healing properly and to rule out any complications.
